Autoren-Porträt von Owen Wister
Owen Wister (1860-1938) brushed the dust off James Fenimore Cooper’s western heroes to give rise to the American cowboy. Wister himself was born in Philadelphia and studied at Harvard University, but had spent summers out West. Drawing from his experiences in the West, he wrote his first story, “Hank’s Woman,” for Harper’s. His novel, The Virginian, (1902) was born out of a discussion on American life with Theodore Roosevelt. Despite his success with the westerns genre, the bulk of Wister’s work is novels, histories, and children’s books. His novels The Dragon of Wantley and The Virginian are both available in eBook format.
